Exploring Moving Walkways with Distance-Time Graphs

In this unit on moving walkways, we analyze a Distance-Time graph comparing walking on a moving walkway to walking on the ground beside it. We explore mathematical techniques to understand the dynamics of different walking scenarios and learn how to represent a person standing still on the moving walkway in the graph.

What useful information do we know? The following Distance-Time graph shows a comparison between walking on the moving walkway and walking on the ground next to the moving walkway. What other mathematical techniques do we need to apply? What other mathematical techniques do we need to apply? What have we learned? What have we learned? Assuming that, in the above graph, the walking pace is about the same for both persons, add a line to the graph that would represent the distance versus time for a person who is standing still on the moving walkway.
